Its sad no other languages have noticed this. PHP is a natural progression from HTML for beginners. Learn HTML, sprinkle a bit of inline PHP here and there, and bam you have a "dynamic" website. An incredibly bad and impossible to maintain website, but a "dynamic" website none the less. From there, ramping learning up to MVC / Frameworks / caching / templates / optimizers is all small leaps from the initial understanding of "put html here, sprinkle php here". Nothing else really has this apart from maybe ASP.
